White-crowned sparrow migration

It is the middle of summer in the Central Valley and the only birds in my backyard these days are house sparrows and mourning doves. I always look forward to when the weather starts cooling down and cool weather birds start migrating. White-crowned sparrows are one of these birds. Alas, I can only paint one for now. This one's titled "A thorny perch II". "II" because I had painted one with the same title years ago. I believe that painting is somewhere in Buffalo, NY. Even my paintings migrate.

These are a few of my watercolor paintings.
In "Wa ka ve?", the avian life of California's Central Valley is my main subject. My goal is to eventually paint most of California's birds (over 600 species!) beginning with the Central Valley.
"Ma ka andah" is my collection of paintings I've done of folks I've met in Africa, Asia, and America.
Enjoy my paintings!
